Outdoor cats need clean, cool water, too, and they also like the sanctuary of a safe, shady spot where they can observe undetected or undisturbed. Watch where they go and improve it for them if you can with extra protection (like their own small, simple cat house) and more space. Note: A garden with sand isn’t a great idea if you have cats; they’ll think it’s an outdoor litter box!

Sometimes cats use tree trunks as scratching posts; little trees can’t tolerate this abuse of their outer bark, so rig a collar of tape, chicken wire, or hardware cloth to prevent the damage.
